I've been searching around the web, trying to find out if there is anything I should know before trying to get my Zip 100 USB drive working on my laptop's (Compaq Armada 110) Gentoo-install. However, the only things I could find was Iomega's own driver/software and the Zip Drive Mini-HOWTO, which made me believe that the drive should be supported at the least. But. I couldn't find any ((seemingly) related) packages on Gentoo-Portage, nor could I find any posts on these forums... so now I'm asking here:

Is there a kernel option or a portage package I've missed? Or does it simply use the normal USB storage device drivers?

(I'm running the latest stable gentoo-dev-sources, using udev.)

Hi.

No problem, it's a usb-storage device. But you need the
scsi-mod and sd-mod modules as it acts like a scsi disc.
(scsi disc support)

You get it like /dev/sda1 if you don't have any other scsi devices.
